DIVING IN

Besides the unlikely marriage of swimwear and haute couture, From Somewhere and Speedo are also making history with a new sartorial concept. “The range comprises a wide variety of products,” says Orsola de Castro, co-owner of From Somewhere, “[from] eveningwear made from over 60 swimsuits to the super-wearable ‘Swimdress,’ a new concept in swimwear as daywear. We’re sure fashion followers will be delighted with the results.”

The outfits all consist of upcycled Speedo LZR Racer full-body swimsuits, which were banned after the Beijing Olympics.
